The Edmonton Oilers have reportedly hired Glen Gulutzan and Trent Yawney to serve as assistant coaches.

If that's the case, then Todd McLellan will have plenty of experience on his coaching staff. Gulutzan spent the past two seasons as the Calgary Flames' bench boss and previously was the head coach of the Dallas Stars for two campaigns. Yawney also has some experience as an NHL head coach as he was in charge of the Chicago Blackhawks for about a year and a half during the 2005-06 and 2006-07 campaigns. Yawney has served as an assistant coach with the Anaheim Ducks for the last four seasons.

The San Jose Sharks have signed Evander Kane to a seven-year contract extension.

The San Jose Sharks didn't disclosed the financial terms of the signing, but based on previous reports, it's probably in the ballpark of $7 million per season. The Sharks acquired Kane from the Buffalo Sabres at the trade deadline and he meshed well with San Jose, scoring nine goals and 14 points in 17 regular season games with the Sharks. Overall, he had 29 goals and 54 points in 78 contests last season. The Sharks are taking a risk here given the inconsistent nature of Kane's career to date, but Kane's also just 26-years-old (he'll turn 27 in August), so the Sharks are buying what should be the prime years of his career. "At only 26 years old, Evander has established himself as one of hockey's true power forwards and an impact player," said Sharks GM Doug Wilson. "We think his abilities mesh perfectly with our group of skilled, young players and veteran leaders."

Laurence Gilman has been hired to serve as an assistant general manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Gilman will join the recently promoted Brandon Pridham in working under new GM Kyle Dubas. Gilman's duties will include a focus on player personnel and the AHL's Toronto Marlies. Gilman worked within the Vancouver Canucks' organization from 2008-15, ascending to the role of assistant general manager. He was also part of the NHL's Expansion Draft Rules and Regulations Committee, ahead of the Vegas Golden Knights' draft. "Laurence provides terrific experience to our management team," Dubas said. "His 20-plus years in the NHL have seen him manage nearly every type of department in professional hockey and have success doing so."

Braden Holtby turned aside all 29 shots he faced in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Final.

The Capitals will now move on to play the Vegas Golden Knights in the Stanley Cup Final. Holtby gave up four, three and three goals in Games 3, 4 and 5 of this series, but he managed to keep the Lightning off the board in Games 6 and 7, which is pretty remarkable. The 28-year-old can now put his up-and-down season behind him, as he'll be heading to the Stanley Cup Final for the first time in his career. Holtby will head into the next round with a 12-6 record, a 2.04 goals-against-average and a .924 save percentage in the postseason. Game 1 of the final will be played in Vegas on Monday night.

David Quinn has officially been hired as the new head coach of the New York Rangers.

Quinn is replacing Alain Vigneault, who the Rangers parted ways with after the 2017-18 campaign. Quinn is a former assistant coach with the Colorado Avalanche and more recently served as the bench boss for Boston University. He's also a former development coach for USA Hockey. "We are excited to announce that David will become the next Head Coach of the New York Rangers," Rangers GM Jeff Gorton said. "In a coaching career that has spanned over two decades at the collegiate, pro, and international level, David has helped his teams achieve success while simultaneously teaching the game and helping his players develop on and off the ice."

The San Jose Sharks have reportedly agreed to a long-term deal with Evander Kane.

The Sharks hit a home run when they acquired Kane from the Buffalo Sabres at the trade deadline and it sounds like they're about to award him with a huge pay day. According to Sportsnet's Irfaan Gaffar, the deal is believed to be in the seven-year, $7 million per season range. The 26-year-old had nine goals and 14 points in 17 games with the Sharks. He then added another four goals and one assist in nine postseason games. If this report is true, the conditional pick that went from San Jose to Buffalo would become a first-round pick in 2019 instead of a second-rounder.

Antti Niemi has signed a one-year, one-way contract with the Montreal Canadiens.

Niemi, who could have become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, will earn $950,000 for the 2018-19 season. The 34-year-old netminder played well for the Canadiens this past campaign after failing to stay long with Pittsburgh and Florida. In 19 games with Montreal, he posted a 7-5-4 record, 2.46 goals-against average, .929 save percentage and one shutout. Niemi will serve as Carey Price's backup.

The New York Islanders have officially announced the hiring of Lou Lamoriello as President of Hockey Operations.

"We are grateful to Larry Tanenbaum and the Toronto Maple Leafs for their courtesy in allowing this move," Managing Partner of the Islanders, Scott Malkin said. "We are committed to giving Lou every resource and the full support of the entire organization as we pursue our program to compete at the highest level." Lamoriello was the GM of the Maple Leafs for the last three years and he has a tremendous amount of experience in the front office.

Braden Holtby turned aside all 24 shots he faced in Monday's 3-0 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Final.

Believe it or not, this was the first shutout of 2017-18 for the Capitals netminder, who came through in the biggest game of the season. The victory puts an end to Holtby's three-game losing skid. He now owns an 11-6 record with a 2.16 goals-against-average and a .919 save percentage in the postseason. This best-of-seven series is now tied up at three. Game 7 will be played in Tampa Bay on Wednesday night. The winner of that game will take on the Vegas Golden Knights in the Stanley Cup Final.
